Of all the lousy drivers on the road, young female alpha b*tches scare me the most. The lack fear AND driving skills. And they WILL run you over.

Of course, Edith Delgado was NOT injured.
I hope she spends heavy time behind bars.

"Tonga — a 170-island archipelago about halfway between Australia and Tahiti — has a population of about 108,000 and an economy dependent on pumpkin and vanilla exports, fishing, foreign aid and remittances from Tongans abroad."

And now, no doubt, hefty damages from the host country for allowing two of their rulers to be killed.

Since they can't kill you with a gun in San Fran (they are outlawed there aren't they?)they'll just kill you with their vehicles.

Wikipedia already has an update and identities:

"His Royal Highness Prince Tuipelehake, 55, and his wife, Princess Kaimana, 45, as well as their driver, Vinisia Hefa, 36, were all killed in the accident. Prince Tuipelehake is the nephew of King Taufa‘ahau Tupou IV, the monarch of Tonga."

"His Royal Highness Prince Tuipelehake was dubbed the "prince of the people" by ordinary Tongans. He was a leading pro-democracy advocate within the royal family"

Wasn't Tonga the country that gave us 16 cows to help out after September 11?

Tongan royals killed in Highway 101 accident

http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/14981304.htm

The royal couple apparently died after their 1998 red Ford Explorer was sideswiped by a speeding white Mustang on Highway 101 just north of Willow Road around 9 p.m. Wednesday night.

Edith Delgado, 18, of Redwood City, was allegedly racing her 1998 Mustang against a black Cadillac Escalade at speeds up to 100 mph when the CHP says she hit the Ford Explorer in which the royal couple were riding.

The collision sent the Explorer over several lanes, CHP spokesman Ricky Franklin said, as the driver tried to regain control.

The SUV flipped multiple times before coming to rest on its roof on the highway shoulder.

All three people in the SUV were wearing their seat belts.

You walk into a room and there is a Tongan laying on the floor in front of the couch. What is his name?

What a sad story. That poor little country will mourn deeply, and that girl's life is completely ruined. What tragic stupidity.

I have a LOT of Tongan friends, this is pretty big stuff. The king is a good guy and while the family pretty much runs the show over there this ain't cool.
